Hi!
I have bought an accesspoint D-link DAP-1353 to enhance my wireless network at home. But its just not possible to access the admin web page at the AP. I suspect that it is the firewall in NIS 2010 that is blocking the AP. But I have tried to turn it off without any success. I run Win7 professional.
Any idea somebody?

Hi Speedyswede
Welcome to the Norton Community Forums
Do you see the new access point in the Network Security map in NIS? If so, you should set it to Full Trust.

Now I found the map! What should I expect to see here? I have a home network (in which the accesspoint is connected to) with a D-link router, a network printer aNAS etc. I can se none of these units.

I have found the acesspoint in the map and I have set the thrust level to full. Then I guess there is some other reason than NIS tha I cant se the admin page in the browser?

Hi Speedyswede
If you are connecting the AP to extend your home network you would be better to set it up as a repeater - most D-link APs can be set up as repeaters and their web site has good tutorials on how to do this.

Yes! But the problem is still that I can not reach the administrator web page on the unit. Something is blocking it...

Hi Speedyswede
Have you tried connecting directly via ethernet cable. Are you trying to access using the default IP address 192.168.0.50 ?

Yes, that is what i am doing. I have connnected the AP to the router with an ethernet cable to get acces to the configuration in it.
